Impact dot matrix printing strikes a ribbon, allowing multi-part forms. Impact printing works with carbon and carbonless multi-part paper used for invoices, delivery notes and receipts. Continuous tractor-fed paper supports long print runs without reloading. Line matrix printers print a whole line at a time and suit very high-volume industrial printing. Mobile print services such as AirPrint and Mopria simplify printing. Media handling determines what sizes and types can be printed. Printers are long-lived assets when maintained.

Multi-Part Forms Printing

Dot matrix printers are rugged and tolerate dusty or hot environments. Dot matrix printers use pins striking an ink ribbon to print, so they can print multi-part forms in one pass. Dot matrix printers have very low running costs, using inexpensive ribbons. Duty cycle indicates maximum monthly output. Compatible drivers support Windows, macOS and Linux.
